The Lead Time Report allows you to easily estimate the average time it takes to process a unit of production (submission or a document) in Hyperscience over a certain period. You can find the report on the Reporting Overview page ( Reporting > Overview).

In this article, you will learn more about the Lead Time report and the way we calculate the values included in it.

Lead Time chart

The Lead Time chart reports the average time it takes to process a unit of production (submission or a document) in Hyperscience, over a certain time period, for a specific layout or flow.

The metrics in the report are aggregated by date of submission completion and flow. When you generate the report, the system counts the number of units (submissions or documents) per day, by referring to the metrics from the Throughput Report. That way you can get the average lead time to completion by unit.

Filtering options:

Date Range— By default, you can review the metrics for the past 7 days, but, if needed, you can select a specific date range.
Submission/Document — Choose what type of calculations you would like to see: those based on submissions or those based on documents.
Flow — Choose the flow that you’re using for your layouts to see the metrics for it.
Layout Variation— Choose your layout variation from the drop-down list and see specific metrics.

Metrics

All metrics included are aggregated on a submission completion date.

Period Start— Based on the parameters needed. Days without throughput have 0 in all other columns.
Average Per Submission — Sums the time spent on a submission from start to finish. The sum is divided by the total number of submissions to show the average time in seconds for end-to-end processing.
Average Per Document— Sums the time spent since a document’s submission started until the document was completed for all of a submission’s documents. The sum is divided by the total number of documents to obtain the average time in seconds for end-to-end processing.
